Julie Oliver Gentry (born January 23, 1973 in Birmingham) was a cast member of MTV's The Real World reality television series.

Julie was the last of seven children born to John W. (Jack) Oliver Jr and Dorothy Wainwright Oliver.

Julie appeared in the first season of the series, filmed in New York City in 1992. The series focuses on placing seven strangers in a house and watching what happens. The original biographical blurb about Julie emphasized her youth and inexperience with the "Real World" outside Alabama. When they first meet the other cast members assume she will be a close-minded racist, but she proves to be open and engaging and becomes close friends with fellow cast member Eric

The Real World has run for 21 seasons, and that first season set the stage for many other American reality television series.

Julie returned to Birmingham after the show, and married Joshua Gentry in 1998. They have two children. She has appeared on Real World reunion shows, but has not participated in "challenge" shows, where former cast members compete for cash and prizes.
